    My New Daily Driver Panther....

    Scared a low mileage '99 one owner Vic last week.

    Got it good and clean and put most of my personal touches on it. I'm just waiting now to get my Marauder style spoiler and a Vic style badgkess grill painted. They will probably be ready for install next week.

    Looks nice...but why did you scare the original owner?

    Do you have a Joe Dirt mullet!?

    We had a 2K. I like those wheels but they are a challenge to keep clean.

    Somebody's in desperate need of some Marauder rims. Other then that I like it.

    It was an honor to have
    my ASS kicked by you!
    Rest In Peace!

    Good guesses!

    MO VIC is the winner. Waiting on the prisoners to make my plate.

    Nice score.
    Instead of Marauder wheels...the 17" Cragar Torque-Thrusts look awesome on the older Panthers. This was my buddy's car:
    '03 Marauder | '91 Country Squire | '18 Flex Ecoboost | '92 Shadow VT1100
    former Panthers: '02 MGM, '04 MGM, '04 MGM v2.0, '04 MM, '07 P71 w/5-speed, '04 CVLX, '03 SAP P71, '10 P7B
    CLICK HERE and have your Marauder's COA info added to the database!!! | 2003 list ||| 2004 list

    Maraduer wheels would fit, but would need 1.5" hubcentric spacers up front and 1.5 0r 2.0" spacers in rear. Plenty of CV guys do it, not sure how you feel on spacers
